Fred Fox, the older brother of Canadian icon Terry Fox, is continuing to share the impact on cancer patients 45 years after he passed.

"My dad was born and raised here [Winnipeg], Terry and I, our siblings were born here," says Fred Fox, Terry's older brother. "My mom was born in Boissevain. We moved west in the 60s, but it's always nice to come back to our home province."

Terry is a Canadian icon and hero for many across the country. However, especially before he got cancer, Fred shares how life was normal.
